Lineage-tracing of <i>Acta2</i> + cells in aged mice during lung fibrosis formation and resolution supports the lipofibroblast to myofibroblast reversible switch
2024-02-22
Abstract excerpt
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) develops mostly in old man and is characterized by the irreversible accumulation of excessive extracellular matrix components by activated myofibroblasts (aMYFs) leading to lung failure. Following bleomycin administration in young mice, fibrosis formation associated with efficient resolution takes place, the later limiting the clinical relevance of this model for IPF. In young m...
